YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Over the last several weeks, there’s been a lot of footage on social media and the news about the increase in migrants crossing the English Channel. Ice cream manufacturer Ben & Jerry's posted a thread to its UK Twitter account calling for the Home Secretary to be more compassionate and expressed how no human can ever be 'illegal'.

Lithuanian-born Lukas Degutis, a student at Leeds University, explains why they've got it all wrong and why actually, Ben & Jerry's 'wokescreen' may be an attempt to divert attention away from its own reported troubles with migrant labour and the bad publicity that has circulated its parent company, Unilever, over recent past.
